Re: [atv-bootloader] Re: SUCCESS! Guide to a bare bones Ubuntu 9.04 install using component video to an 1080i HDTV!

[Robert Baptista]

I've booted the alternate version of the installer for 10.04. Sorry, I didn't mention it earlier I noticed you were only asking for the server and netboot versions, which I only got to work once I think and it wasn't very reliable and repeatable. Alternate version will boot fine however. If you want more info on alternate I'll have to check my flash drive to remember how I did it since it was quite a few months back.

However, I'm not really sure what "supported" means; I'm guessing it has to do with security updates and backports. If anyone is able to boot the alternate, server, or netboot versions of Lucid (10.04), I'd greatly appreciate hearing about how they did it. I've only had luck with the standard desktop version.

Since this was all new to me when I started, I figured that I'd start with the "tried and true". I'd like to try installing 10.04 at some point, but I'm not really sure what new features/improvements have been made to justify the effort. I think that MythVideo has been improved (which I am also using with the atv, so there is some motivation there), but I don't really think there's been many improvements to the TV watching interface itself. Hopefully, someone will correct me on this if I mistaken. If you tackle it, please let me know any lessons learned.
